Life

Devlin

I should have listened to my mother She told me think before you speak You better run for cover When you hear the sound of the police Now look at what I started Lord I beg your pardon I need to leave this secret garden They say home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is Life's crazy now! I'm asking how many of my friends got babies now Life ain't waiting around for no man it won't slow down it just speeds up that's when I freeze up And I think of the future do I want daughters do I need sons In this messed up world do I need love Need drink, do I need skunk To elevate me like fiends, fuck! Jim you think too deep cuz Yeah I know it and I hate my brain 'cause it never can go with the grain This life's an enigma straight No peace 'til I rest in peace I should have listened to my mother She told me think before you speak You better run for cover When you hear the sound of the police Now look at what I started Lord I beg your pardon I need to leave this secret garden They say home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is I've seen a lot of lights flash Done well for a white trash kid that dwelled in the timelapse Vibing to 90s rap in my night cap tryna bring time back Whys that? I don't really know but I worked on impulse Writing tracks all about where my life's at I never knew I'd be a live act many years later When you're breaking through they all rate you But when you make the cut they all hate you Now I'm isolated I'm a stranger Anywhere I go I'm in danger 'cause there's always gonna be a hater What's life about? Will I find out later I should have listened to my mother She told me think before you speak You better run for cover When you hear the sound of the police Now look at what I started Lord I beg your pardon I need to leave this secret garden They say home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is When the music dies and I'm obsolete I'll spit my rhymes on a somber beat Wave bye-bye like Dom McClean fly through time in a quantum leap Witness life from a godly seat observing those that were lost like me Explorers lost at sea when the siren seems so sweet It's enchanting 'til you don't know who you are and your fate's advancing Look around you're getting older now and still wasting chances Raised in carnage now I feel like Bane in darkness But I'm still dancing to an unknown beat with the speakers blasting I should have listened to my mother She told me think before you speak You better run for cover When you hear the sound of the police Now look at what I started Lord I beg your pardon I need to leave this secret garden They say home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is
